- Potential en passant capture of royal pawn wasn't recognised as check
- En passant keys weren't played in some conditions

- more consistent and more correct handling of "observations" (check, Madrasi, Patrol Chess etc.)
Introduced in 4.63:
- Wormholes: Proof games, other details
- Alphabetic Chess didn't work
- Chameleon Chess didn't work
- too many refutations were indicated in SuperCirce and its variations
- KoBul Kings: capture of a neutral pawn would make the king neutral
- KoBul Kings: strange effects if combined with Diagram Circe
- neutral Non-Stop Equihoppers were allowed to capture themselves using themselves as hurdle
- promotion to Poseidon (Marine King) was allowed - in some restricting conditions, threats were not found, causing Zugzwang to be wrongly indicated

So, it looks that you can test problems with AG using command "HurdleColourChanging G" (I am not tested it yet).
VALERIO
was very handy!
Will it not be better to reintroduce it?
In other words, "HurdleColourChanging" is seen as a property of some pieces, like neutral or paralysing or magic, not as a special kind of piece.
(And by the way, the American inventor of the Andernach G intended this to be a general property, applicable to all hoppers.)
